The business college has found an investmentor for our new business. She has many years of experience in this field, and is willing to help us with our working capital needs until we can be profitable.
The investmentor did not try to run our company, but presented us with several ideas on better business practices. He also was willing to lend us some of the initial startup costs at a reasonable rate when the banks all turned us down.

Prior to the repeal (1999) of the Glass-Steagall Act, commercial banks and investment banks were required to be separate entities. Subsequently, the law was changed so that a bank holding company could own a commercial bank and an investment bank. Outside of the USA, commercial banks have always been allowed to engage in underwriting securities.
Investment banks usually sell shares of stock on a major exchange, such as the NYSE or NASDAQ. They give a fixed amount of money to the borrower, but also an agreed-upon number of shares, so if the shares soar in price after the public offering, then the investment bank makes an immense amount of money.
Investment banks also underwrite other kinds of securities, such as bonds.
